Thread Name: Nic Jones - video footage?
Subject: RE: Nic Jones - video footage?
ChrisB - a guy called Geoff Gough has sent me 3.5GB of files mainly recordings from the Beeb. The moot point is where to upload them to.
The folders are:
* 1979-08-09 Sidmouth 4 songs BBC R2 165c
Barrack Street / Hamburger Polka / Farewell To The Gold / Swimming Song
*1980-04-02 Birmingham audience tape
The Old House at Home, Lawnswood Ave, Birmingham I've only just dubbed my cassette this week. It's surprisingly listenable for an audience tape, so I've kept it at flac level.
Unknown 1st or 2nd gen tape > Sony BHF 90 > wave > flac
(This recording would probably benefit from skilled adjustment of performer/audience recording levels, but I have made no attempts myself).
* 1980-04-02 Harbourne (entitled "Live at Harbourne")
The Old House at Home, Lawnswood Ave, Harbourne, Birmingham I found these files at the end of the week and I include them as an alternate to the cassette. I don't know the source so I can't give you lineage. I would say that maybe these sound a little better. Whether is taken from the same tape or from another I'm afraid my ears are not good enough to tell.
* 1980-05-20 RD & Friends
Barrack Street / Farewell to the Gold / I still remember what was on the jukebox / Thanksgiving
* 1980-08 Sidmouth one song indexed as 2011-05-18 Folk on 2 inc N Jones

* 1981 BBC
8 songs - no sources - received in 2016 but no further documentation
